Semico's SoC hierarchy. What do you do with a platypus SoC?EDA360 Insider - Steve LeibsonFeb. 11, 2011 |
For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been writing about several aspects of Semico’s IP Subsystem report. (see “Are IP subsystems the next big IP category?”) The report’s premise is that the rise of IP Subsystems—IP blocks that deliver complete functions such as video or audio through a collection of design IP, software stacks, application software, and verification IP—fundamentally change the way SoCs are and will be developed in advanced process nodes. (Note: this is a concept that’s firmly embedded in the EDA360 vision.) A significant factor not yet covered in this blog is how the hierarchy of SoC definitions and metrics changes with this step up in IP complexity. This blog entry rectifies that omission.
